The Neue Nationalgalerie cordially invites you to the opening of "Ruin and Intoxication. Berlin 1910-1930".
With "Ruin and Intoxication", the Neue Nationalgalerie focuses on selected works from its collection of Classical Modernism that thematize Berlin in the 1910s and 1920s. These decades - characterized by the First World War and the Weimar Republic - constantly oscillated between opposites: Excess and poverty, emancipation and extremism went hand in hand in the rapidly growing, cosmopolitan metropolis. With around 35 works of different styles, the exhibition brings these ambivalences to life in Berlin at the time.
The opening begins at 19:00
